SO TRUE!!! Here is my toned down rant for people who don&amprsquot like basics!!! 🤣
BASICS are the ROOTS of your karate without strong roots the tree cannot grow strong and tall instead will be thin small and weedy and may not even be able to blossom or fruit! And if storms come someone attacks you then your tree may even be ripped out of the ground as you haven&amprsquot set your foundations right.
THE TRUNK is built on the root foundations this is your KATA converting your small techniques into strong movements that can build up and work together to allow to you rise above the ground and protect the energy inside powering your growth.
THE BRANCHES AND BLOSSOM are your KUMITE where you adapt your training and develop the art yourself- where your training becomes perfected and beautifully unique to you.
THE FRUIT is the legacy you leave behind either in the actions you conduct the positive impacts you make on others and the students you introduce to the art.
THE SENSEI is the one who nurtured you from a seedling into the strong almighty tree that each seedling is capable of not all seedlings make it through the long process however. So have trust and undying respect for your Sensei and the Journey that you embark on. Great oak trees didn&amprsquot sprout over night 🌳 .
